Summary
“I am forgetting what she was like,” Ilya says quietly. His voice comes out choked. “I have few memories, little moments. I remember how she made me feel. But I have lost so much of her.”
Shane holds Ilya tighter.
“And one day,” Ilya’s voice breaks. Shane feels wetness on his shirt. “I might be like my father. I will have nothing left of her. All of it will be gone.”
Ilya is awfully, terribly scared of forgetting his mother. In realizing he might, he picks up the pieces of her that are left.

“I’m… I’m glad he found you, though, Ilya. Really. I know he’s had girlfriends before, but… he really seems at home, with you.”

While Ilya and David are left alone inside the Hollander house, they chat. David realizes there's a lot he hadn't thought about.

Would You Hold Me When We Crash (Or Would You Let Me Go) by poading
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid

Summary
Shane knew the weight his relationship with Rose carried. It was perfectly balanced, like it was made just for the approximation of his body. He could lift it without strain. No push, no pull.
He wished so badly for it to be her.
That was how Shane found himself at Le Ciel, wrapped in the embrace of bright lights and loud bass. He took precautions to avoid situations that might breach his limits. Situations like this one. The sting of alcohol on the air, the scrape of Rose’s dress on his forearms, the empty pit that yawned open in his stomach at the sight of Ilya Rozanov plundering a woman’s ear with his tongue. It was all too much.
It still wasn’t enough.
--
Or: When Ilya gets into a car accident after leaving the club, Shane rushes to his bedside. Rose connects the dots.

“Got someone special waiting for you?”

“I wanted to celebrate with Lily, but she isn’t here.”
The video ends shortly after, and the internet collectively loses its mind. Within minutes #FindLily is trending across all social media platforms, women from across the globe begging Shane to dump her ass.
OR on the night that Shane wins the cup for a second year in a row, the internet learns of Lily and goes absolutely nuts.

Summary
It was so silly. Ilya knew that. It was so beyond silly. He just couldn’t shake the feeling of dread, the feeling of regret. He regretted not kissing him. He regrets letting his mind dictate his actions and deprive him from happiness.
“I should’ve kissed you, Hollander” Ilya muttered to himself, wiping the stray tears that fell from his eyes. Because now, he had to go back to Russia with the regret of not kissing him. God. He was so stupid.
His phone dinging and lighting up snapped him out of his trance, he figured it was one of his teammates. When he looked at his phone, a message from Jane popped up. He was surprised, almost speechless actually. It read “We didn’t even kiss,” it shocked Ilya the most. Was Shane feeling the same way? Did Shane have this burning hole that felt like he was being eaten alive too?

(All I Need Is On) The Other Side of the Door by midwestmillie

Summary
“Unlock the door, Hollander.”
Even though Shane couldn’t hear the exact words, he knew what Ilya said. He shook his head.
“Unlock the door, or I will break the glass. Your choice.”
Shane’s eyes widened again and he briefly hung his head as if regretting all of his past life decisions, and Ilya heard the resounding click of the unlock mechanism.
He felt wild, his mind in violent turmoil as he threw open the door and his palm clutched the back of Shane’s head, his fingers finding purchase in the coarse hair. “Are you listening to me?” Shane ducked his head in acknowledgment. “I’m going to call off my driver. You will not move. I am going to sit there-“ he pointed at the empty passenger seat. “-in this boring car of yours and I am going to find out why the fuck you are alone and who the fuck made you cry.”
*************************************************************
Inspired by Shane’s confession in The Long Game (*mini-spoiler*) about his whereabouts after leaving a certain Montreal nightclub in January 2017, Ilya leaves the club shortly after Shane only to find him pulled over on the side of the road, devastated.
